Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite Review | Two major sacrifices...

[@TechSpurt]

Thanks for checking out my latest Xiaomi review - feels like I've done a couple dozen of these already in 2021! Apologies for the screen flicker, that's my bad - I didn't bump the shutter speed down before recording. You won't see any of that flicker in real life, thankfully

[@abdullahbinzaheer2594]

Any heating issues??

[@abuthufail1868]

The sim card is hybrid and can use sd card in it

[@AngeloStella72]

the memory is expandable, the slot is hybrid.

[@_TrueDesire_]

any upcoming Mi11 Lite 5G (since it has better SoC than non 5G) or Mi 11i reviews? :D

[@JordiLA]

thanks for the review! but it has microsd slot! just behind the nano sim.

[@GrilledChickenRamyun]

My friend bought it today. Get to hold it. Honestly it looks stunning, feels light and very fast

[@farzanarahman4998]

How about camera quality front

[@dumpacc13]

My mom is going to buy this for me on may 20, i hope it's good.

[@darana1142]

Hmmm. The specs are good but the miui is bad tbh. It lags for a half a second before opening anything. Maybe the miui 12.5 might fix it but idk I think xiaomi limits Performance on lower end devices by purpose because their higher end devices run fine on miui 12

[@MAT_1922]

@@darana1142 isn’t it possible to do a clean android install

[@osamashoaib6519]

Does it have wireless charging?

[@diegofeyn66]

It does have an extra slot for memory card. It's a duality with a second Sim card. And also when one gets it, receives an adapter for 3.5 jack stick too.

[@stupidbitch1299]

Why did he say it doesn't support sd card??

[@dylanjenkins1296]

@@stupidbitch1299 the regular mi 11 doesn’t support sd card so maybe he got confused

[@spider-scott8438]

If that is so, then that is a BIG oof from a tech reviewer

[@TheVinylFactor]

This is an important fact.

[@hopesonmakokha5217]

Okay well what's going on here🤔 surely he would have looked into wtf

[@loulou2302]

I hope future phones will be light weight again. I get strained muscles just holding a 200 grams phone plus the phone usually fell on my face at night 🤕

[@Airatpro13]

Same!

[@CaptainChrom]

they should rather be more compact like regular iPhones (6.1" I think) than lighter and thinner. Thin just makes it structurally weak and the battery small. Compactness is more important

[@loulou2302]

@@CaptainChrom I want compact phones too. I remember like 8 years ago, I was laughing at this guy taking a call on a tablet, because that thing is too wide and big, now phones are starting to look like tablets.

[@richard35791]

Lol, that means dont play phones when you sleep in bed

[@GrilledChickenRamyun]

And smaller screen😔

[@FelixHrm]

Xiaomi every monday: putting specs on rubic cube, shuffle it, pick 1 side, and BOOM! new Xiaomi phone.

[@Kilgore2k12]

It has a glass back, not plastic., It has dual hybrid slim slot.. the 2nd sim slot can be inserted by micro sd card.

[@tapiwa_mavende]

I think Xiaomi is doing a decent job this year and I would seriously consider getting one. Their devices are improving.

[@empry7]

Absoultely agree. Im using iPhones last 8 years but disappointed how Apple fall behind others manufacturers. Budget mi 11 give you better and more advanced specs than my iPhone 11. This is 90hz display, bright and contrast AMOLED, really fast charging out of the box and all this for a ridiculous price.

[@Damian-yd6ir]

decent job? theyve been killing it since last year

[@tucobenedictopacificojuanm3168]

Think il pick up the Poco F3 Pro and a replacement for mi Mi Mix 2. Using a 11pro max and I don't think I will upgrade to another iPhone for 4-5 years.

[@mgf909]

Me too, been with oneplus/apple for the last 6 years

[@joszsz]

CORRECTION: It does have expandable storage, but the SIM tray might make it tricky to spot. The SIM tray holds one "space" in which you can insert two SIM on flip sides (with their backs lapping on each other). The side of the tray that holds SIM 2 also works as a hybrid micro SD slot.

[@psillypseudonym1278]

Everyone missed his point: it does have a microSD card slot but you cannot set the sd card to be internal storage like you can on the note 10 pro meaning you can only put videos and pictures on the sd card and cannot install apps directly to the card. That's what he's saying. Do you know if this is correct as I'm thinking they might have added an update to fix this?

[@joszsz]

@@psillypseudonym1278 oh, if that's the case I'd say he was too vague with the way he said it. I'm on the latest global build for Miui 12.5, and I couldn't find any option in the regular Settings for that (i.e. using SD card as a second drive for apps), but there is a toggle that says "Force allow apps to write to external storage" in Developer options. Not sure if that will work though, I've never used my card to install apps (and I only recall being asked to pick the option in an old Samsung device from 2016, the other phones I've used never asked)

[@d24]

I really like the front bezels are small and almost symmetrical. From the front it looks like an oversize picel 4a. For specs,go for the Redmi Note 10 Pro. But for Design,I would buy the Mi 11 Lite

This phone design is just so amazing!

[@NathansLife]

I had this phone for like 2 years, until the cpu decided to desolder itself a few days ago... trying to find a phone with everything this had for a good price is pretty hard, but ive decided to go for the pixel 7 so lets wait and see how it stacks up.

[@alan9047]

SIM slot 2 can be used for SD card so your review is kinda misleading..

[@MAT_1922]

Hey, people make mistakes so it shouldn’t matter

[@shuja.j]

In my country, this phone and Redmi Note 10 pro are the same price, so I'll have to go with the Redmi since it has more features for the same price

[@JoCaTen]

Hehehehe Major I see what you did there with the wallpaper! Ghost In The Shell is truly a classic

[@mickaelmagalhaes3041]

Note: mi 11 lite support microsd, you can choose sim2 or microsd if you need

[@barbaralaing4114]

Assuming Chris is correct and GSM are mistaken regarding the memory card (see my earlier comment) then I have to agree with him, the Redmi Note 10 Pro is a more complete package for this price point. Still looking ahead to birthday goodies time (that's MY birthday) in a few months time the 11 lite 5G is still a strong contender. Usual well balanced review, thank you for the effort you put in.

[@PTLeo69]

Thank you for the review!! Very helpful. Honestly I ordered it before i watched the video, I looked up the specs, loved it but didn't notice it didn't have an headphone jack, however I saw it comes with an adapter for it, personally I only use wireless earphones so I don't think it will bother me too much, in my opinion it comes down to a personal preference between it and the Pocos or the Redmi Note 10 which are better for heavy gaming.

where do you get those sick-ass wallpapers?

corn on a cob

[@patrick6110]

I have owned mobile phones since the first Motorola model. I never used a SD card. There is no time. As soon as the internal memory space starts lacking it's high time for an upgrade. I haven't owned wired headphones for years either and don't understand why people complain about the lack of jack. My number one criteria for buying a phone is the weight. I target 160 g max. The second criteria is c. £300. The other criterias are secondary. In real life, you don't notice that a phone is little slower, or that the screen isn't as good as it should, or that the camera isn't the best in the market, or any of that techno crap. But the weight and the price are real.
